I always
get asked “do those ionic detoxification foot baths work?”
While
there is no concrete evidence that ionic footbaths, can remove toxins from the
body.
Researchers
from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) and the University of
Toronto’s Faculty of Pharmacy conducted a series of tests running a footbath
with and without feet and analyzing the water for differences in the level of potentially
toxic elements (Arsenic, lead, etc..).
“Whether or not the feet were there, the
composition of the water was pretty much the same,” said study co-author
naturopathic doctor Dugald Seely, director of research and clinical
epidemiology at the CCNM and executive director of CCNM’s Ottawa Integrative
Cancer Centre.
“There
was no significant difference in terms of any of the toxic elements being
leached out into the water,” he said, listing heavy lead, cadmium, and arsenic.
So what
causes the color to change in the water? Well “we found over time was that the
array was corroding,” he said.
He noted
that it was elements from this corrosion that caused the water to become dirty
and cloudy and change colour.
So from
that study there were no significant changes in the metals. Although this is
just one study and there are always varying opinions out there. But for now
this does not help detoxify the body.

Neural therapy was developed in Germany beginning in the 1920s.
Neural therapy is a remarkably safe and simple method of treating many
medical problems and is taught in German medical schools.
How does it Work?
Specific
homeopathic preparations, chelating agents, vitamins and/or local
anesthetics are used in the injection solution. An injected anesthetic
will cause a nerve to be numbed by changing the positive and negative
charges on the membrane of the nerve tissue so that no sensation can be
passed along such as when your lips become numb after a visit to the
dentist. In neural therapy the intention is not to anaesthetize or numb
the nerve, but rather to change the membrane potential temporarily, with
the expectation that when the anesthetic wears off, the membrane
charges and nerve function will return to normal. Neural Therapy is like
rebooting the “body computer”, the autonomic nervous system, to reset
regulation and normalize function.
Neural therapy is a
nervous system regulation therapy, so just about anything short of
cancer and metabolic disease can be positively affected. The more common
conditions that benefit from it include: back and neck pain,
posttraumatic conditions, chronic pain from whiplash and head injury,
joint pain, muscle pain, and athletic injuries. Jaw and head pain,
post-surgical pain (including dental), digestive disturbances,
sinusitis, hypothyroid, muscle injuries, organ dysfunctions and scar
disturbances also benefit from neural therapy.

IV therapy, Vitamins and minerals Parenteral therapy or IV therapy can be defined as substances that are given directly and absorbed into the circulatory system, by-passing the “enteric system” or gastro-intestinal tract and liver, thereby increasing the absorption of the substances. The Parenteral therapy can be delivered Intravenously, intramuscular or subcutaneously. Vitamins, minerals, amino acids and homeopathics are easily, safely and effectively delivered to the body. Why Parenteral Therapy? Parenteral therapy is a way for individuals with compromised intestinal absorption or digestive issues (Cancer, Crohn's disease, Irritated Bowl Syndrome, ulcerative colitis, etc.); to have 100% absorption of the nutrients delivered over the conventional oral administration. As well Parenteral therapy enables rapid delivery of higher concentrations of medicines that may otherwise not be possible by oral means.
Who Can Benefit from Parenteral Therapy? Parenteral therapy benefit a variety of conditions. Severe acute and chronic infectious diseases (Mononucleosis, Influenza, and Herpes), autoimmune conditions (rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and Psoriasis), Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis, acute and chronic gastrointestinal illnesses and cancer are among the most common conditions treated by parenteral therapy. Patients suffering from anxiety, depression, neurological conditions, chronic stress and general poor vitamin-mineral status can also benefit greatly. Individuals who are interested in “anti-aging” or simply preventative medicine, parenteral therapies offer delivery of high concentrations of potent anti-oxidants to combat oxidative stress which is a marker of premature aging, degenerative diseases and pre-cancerous states.
What Substances are Administered? The type of Parenteral Therapy will vary depending on the condition and the purpose of the treatment. Naturopathic treatment is individualized according to the patient and the treatment goals. Various vitamins, minerals, and homeopathics can be safely administered parenteraly to enhance the therapeutic response.

Spirituality Key to Chinese Medicine Success: Study Explores Why Chinese Medicine Has Stood the Test of Time
ScienceDaily (Sep. 25, 2012) — Are the longevity and vitality of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) due to its holistic approach? Indeed, Chinese medicine is not simply about treating illness, but rather about taking care of the whole person -- body, mind, and spirit. According to an analysis of TCM's origins and development by Lin Shi from Beijing Normal University and Chenguang Zhang from Southwest Minzu University in China, traditional Chinese medicine is profoundly influenced by Chinese philosophy and religion. To date, modern science has been unable to explain the mechanisms behind TCM's effects.
The study is published online in Springer's journal Pastoral Psychology, in a special issue² dedicated to the psychology of religion in China.
The essence of TCM lies in its foundation in spirituality, religion, and philosophy, making it quite different from Western medicine and leading it to be viewed by some as magical and mysterious. Chinese medicine is an ancient discipline with a long developmental history and is very much influenced by religion and spirituality. Shi and Zhang's paper examines in detail six aspects of traditional Chinese medicine: its history; its fundamental beliefs; spirituality in traditional Chinese healing rituals; spirituality in the traditional Chinese pharmacy; spirituality in health maintenance theories; and spirituality of master doctors of traditional Chinese medicine.
